Proxy servers are a key component of any network. They act as a middleman, forwarding requests from one network location to another. Proxy servers are also used to conceal the true identity of the user accessing the internet. In Kubernetes, proxy servers are used to enable Kubernetes deployments to access external services.

Proxy servers can be used to cache or proxy requests to Kubernetes services. In addition, proxy servers can be used to provide load balancing and fault tolerance. Proxy servers can also be used to provide a private network for Kubernetes deployments.
